Could you perhaps post some "policy" regarding these issues on the GNU
Smalltalk site? To make your position clear I mean (and I presume you
more or less represent the gst community).

I am not saying this is an issue, but it could prevent one from
appearing and also make it clear how much cross-breeding can still take
place. Especially since the Smalltalk community is quite "used to"
sharing code, by tradition. And it is quite common that discussions
around specific solutions go along the theme "how do they do it in
Smalltalk X/Y/Z?".

All the Smalltalk implementations and our community(ies) live in
symbiosis more or less - and I personally see benefits with all
different licensing kinds and Smalltalk implementations.
